t is feared the head of the Greater Manchester force was too busy chasing skirt to be chasing criminals.

News of the inquiry emerged as two more women were alleged to have had relationships with the married dad-of-three nicknamed “Hot Toddy”.

One was his personal assistant Anne Neild, 46, to who Mr Todd was said to be “very close”. She split from her husband Andrew eight years ago.

The other is Tracy Clarke, 37, who he met while they were both at the Met. Tracy, who worked in the internal complaints department, revealed yesterday: “It wasn’t an extra-marital fling. It was an intimate relationship. There was a lot of chemistry.”

But she also claimed Mr Todd admitted suffering from depression.

And she alleged he once threatened to kill himself with paracetamol tablets when he feared their affair would be exposed at an employment tribunal she was involved in.
